US Daylight Savings Time Sun Alert 102836

Bug 6530336 that was part of Sun Alert 102836, has been fixed in this release. As a result, it is no longer necessary to run the tzupdater tool with the -bc flag to work around this bug. Bug 6466476, that was also part of Sun Alert 102836 has not yet been fixed. If your application uses the deprecated java.util.Timezone IDs and is sensitive to the behavior outlined in 6466476, you will still need to run the tzupdater tool with the -bc flag as a work-around. Note that running tzupdater with the -bc flag does not hinder the fix for 6530336 in any way.
